INGREDIENTS
1.75 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (approx. 50g)
1/4 cup Raw Cashews (approx. 36g)
105 grams Firm Tofu
2 Tbsp Nutritional Yeast (approx. 16g)
1 cup Broccoli Florets (approx. 156g)
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes until crispy and slightly browned at the edges.
While the broccoli roasts, cook the whole wheat pasta in a pot of boiling, salted water according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a high-speed blender, combine raw cashews, firm tofu, nutritional yeast, a clove of garlic (optional), salt, pepper, and a splash of water. Blend until smooth and creamy, adjusting water to reach desired consistency.
Mix the creamy cashew sauce into the warm pasta, stirring well to ensure even coating.
Plate the pasta and top with the roasted broccoli. Serve immediately and enjoy your nutrient-rich, creamy cashew Alfredo pasta dinner.
